When I came back to the office after signing my name 700 times, the MyRecipes team was ready to toast my new place with a shot of Veev. This liqueur made with acai berries is sweet, tart, and delicious. I don't know how well the superfood qualities of acai translate to spirits, but the berry's flavor makes the transition beautifully.

I was completely sold on Veev after trying their basil gimlet recipe. The brightly flavored liqueur with fresh basil and shot of lime are irresistible on a summer afternoon.

Veev Basil Gimlet

2 ounces Veev Acai Spirit

4 fresh basil leaves

1 ounce fresh lime juice

3/4 ounce simple syrup

Tear 3 basil leaves to release oils and drop into a cocktail shaker. Shake all ingredients well with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with the remaining basil leaf.
